Note: Since people seem to like this diary and it's getting some fun/interesting comments I want to take this chance to point you to a diary I wrote about a week ago on the history of Military Experience in Presidential Campaigns. I put a lot of time and effort into it and unfortunately it was bumped off the list at record speed. Its too late to recommend it, but I feel the information needs to get out there so if anyone wants to take my diary and build on it for themselves please do.
Here's the link.

Okay that's enough pimping on to McCain and his hilarious mistakes...
You would think with his photoshopped images of Obama on a dollar bill, his obsession with Paris Hilton and Britney Spears, his tendency to rip off slogans and web design from Obama, and or course his unsanctioned use (dare I say pirating) of songs at his rallies; John McCain would feel right at home on the Internet. I mean this is a guy whose stump speech makes the comments at YouTube look like Shakespeare. But alas John McCain is a self described illiterate when it comes to computers.
Thus one would think he'd be familuar with a pen and paper. That is more of his style after all. And one would think that having voted to make English the official language of the United States John McCain would learn how to use it properly.
But one would be wrong. Take a look at this pen found on John McCain's web store.

If you don't see anything wrong with this pen ask yourself a question one of your teachers may have asked back in grade school. Is "Student's For McCain" supposed to be a contraction? Was it originally singular as in "Student is for McCain?" perhaps this student is a child who got left behind?
Now some of you may ask why I am making such a big deal out of a misplaced apostrophe? I am first to admit I have made my fair share (as I'm sure all of us have) of grammatical errors. In fact I would not bet against there being several in this very diary. When you write a lot, you make a lot of mistakes. That's just the way it goes.
However, I am not running for President. And I am certainly not running for President by tearing down my opponent as inexperienced. McCain doesn't know how to properly use an apostrophe. Yet he plans on running our nation? Maybe if we ask him how many "house's" he owns he'll understand the question better.
I look forward to hearing about how John McCain was a POW and couldn't use apostrophes for 5½ years!!!! And if he wants extra apostrophes on his $6.00 dollar ball point pens than he is entitled to them!
This is of course not the first bit of hilarity found on John McCain's website a few months ago a fellow Kossack found some hilarious comments on McCain's store items!
